"The long awaited follow-up to Liz Janes' acclaimed debut, Done Gone Fire (2001-produced and arranged with accompaniment by Sufjan Stevens), Poison & Snakes combines punk, gospel and country music elements to document Liz's progression as a seasoned singer, songwriter and performer. Her mellifluous blues-tinged voice and unexpected phrasing are set against eclectic and unpredictable arrangements in collaboration with producer Rafter Roberts."
